Useful resources found on the web for teachers...


A search engine designed specifically for children. It protects them from what they shouldn't be exposed to, while providing them with the resources they need to do well in school.

National Library of Virtual Manipulatives (NLVM) is a website that was present by Morgan Bell in class. I immediately fell in love with this site because it is engaging and I feel as though I could spend hours on here. It offers so many tools and resources that a teacher could use for his or her classroom.

A site that provides insightful ways to create the "perfect" math quizzes. It could be a useful tool for math teachers to look at or even to provide the information for their students' parents. By providing the link for parents, it could encourage them to get involved with their child's life and/or help their child for easily succeed.

Here is a site that provides recipes for making useful things (i.e. chalk, playdough) that a teacher could use for in school projects or assignments. Furthermore, a teacher could use this site (or a similar site or any recipe in general) to help students work on their fractions. An example could include having a student locate a family recipe, executing this recipe and bringing in the food item to share with class.

The following link will bring you to a website that offers an immense selection of links that bring you to other sites that provide free software. For education specific software simply look under the "Category" column and scroll down to "Education". There you will find some handy links for even Mathematics.

I know this class/wikispace is centered about Mathematics, I cannot help but share this link that provides a huge selection of links to bring you to external sites that will further your learning, especially in Science. However, if you scroll far enough down you will come across a heading titled "Mathematics" under which you will find nine links concerning Math (though at least four of them can bu dubbed unuseful for teachers for the reason being that they are links to online-college sites to provide you with the materials necessary to take classes concerning Math). I would HIGHLY reccomend this site not being passed over, but more thoroughly explored.

For grade levels 1st-4th you can find some useful worksheets and "Build-It" generators. Though it may not be helpful to some, to others it could be a useful starting tool; a place to generate ideas.

I really enjoyed this following site becuase many sites provide an overwhelming list of "useful" sites for teachers concerning Mathematics. Howerver, this site cute that 100 down to 10. I thoroughly appreciate this site and agree that the links provided on it could prove to be quite useful.

Another website presented to class by MDY was one that a former student, Kelsey, shared with her. It is an online gradebook and I could see this coming in handy in the years to come. It is a great tool for teachers to use. If offers a calendar, quiz options, attendance, etc.
